Kylesa Cancels European Festival Appearance

American prog-sludge metal act Kylesa has posted the following statement online, announcing it has pulled out of a future European festival date due to health concerns.

"We are very sorry to say that because of separate health issues pertaining to band member(s) and their immediate family, Kylesa will not be able to make Bergen fest later this month. We are extremely disappointed as this is a very unique and diverse fest that we were very excited to be a part of. Nonetheless, we must face these issues now so as to keep the rest of our plans for the year intact. Our apologies to all."

I wouldn't necessarily say that this is a bad thing. The only reason I say this is because I just saw Kylesa perform at the Mezzanine in San Francisco, CA and they were terrible. I'm sorry for being hard on the band, but I don't think that they were good in any respect.
